「An hour later.」
Melodious zither music drifted from the Spring Lotus Garden.
It was like a school of fish swimming through a stream, like a bird gliding through a mountain valley, like a fine steed galloping freely across a boundless prairie.
Such was the ethereal, joyful melody of "Carefree Travel."
Even though it was Xiao Wan'er's first time playing the piece, and her performance was far from perfect, it still stirred the flowers, birds, fish, and insects of the Spring Lotus Garden into a lively dance.
As the sunlight shone down, flowers and blades of grass could be seen faintly fluttering in the air.
But scenery was just scenery.
Compared to Xiao Wan'er, who sat gracefully in the pavilion playing her Zither, it all paled in comparison.
Even classic idioms used to praise legendary beauties could not begin to describe her.
Her dark hair danced, her brows like distant mountains.
Her nose was delicate, her lips like jade, her cheeks as pure as driven snow.
